Edward Norton Hated His Corn Rows!
Posted by Adam
EDWARD Norton says it was a “challenge” having his hair in corn rows for his latest movie role.
The Hulk actor admits he hated having small braided knots of hair in lines across his head for Stone.
“It was a challenge,” says Ed.
“I had this wonderful woman from downtown Detroit, Crystal. She treated me kindly but once they were done it did feel really tight on my head. It was really strange and uncomfortable for a while but it looked great. And I did eventually get used to them.”
Norton — who plays an arsonist who is trying to manipulate his parole officer, portrayed by Robert DeNiro, in the thriller — previously admitted his radical style change was a big hit with the film’s director John Curran.
“I said things to him like ‘I’m seeing a lot of these convicts in cornrows and things.’ I think he was like, ‘What?’” he said.
“One of the big thrills to me was the first day we really started working on it, he came around the corner from the camera and his eyes were really wide as he saw my hair and he just came over and went, ‘I just love this. I love where you’re going with this.”
